Ham-sur-Heure is a commune in the province of Enow in the Walloon Region of Belgium, located about 60 kilometers south of Brussels. Nestled along the River Eure, this quiet town is known for its idyllic scenery and historic buildings and has a population of about 7,000.
The 16th-century Château de Ham-sur-Heure, preserved in the center of the town and surrounded by a moat and park, is a local landmark. The nature trails along the River Eure are ideal for hiking and biking, and fishing and picnicking are common in the summer months. The traditional brick and stone houses, weekly market and St. Martin's Church are typical of Walloon country life.
The economy is based on agriculture and small-scale services, with easy access to the N55, which connects to the cities of Charleroi and Maubeuge. Honey and dairy products are produced in the region, and an annual village festival in the fall attracts tourists from around the region.
